rules

[MessedUpStar]

Love this song, studing Romeo and Juliet in english lit, so gonna use this for insperation :D

[shittyfagg]

@MessedUpStar i don't mean to offend, but you study english lit and you spell 'insperation'.

[MessedUpStar]

@shittyfagg I said i study it, i didn't say i was any good at it.

[shittyfagg]

@MessedUpStar mm yeah makes sense. Like how I studied German and all I can say is NEIN NEIN NEIN NEIN NEIN. But at least that's spelt right.

[MrAccr0]

amazing *-*

[69flamez69]

The lyrics in this song really do make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up....

[buzzerson]

No, that song is "Junktown" by Faster Than Flash, a side project of his. I got it on vinyl. Hard to find. It's here on youtube, though.

[lyonslaforet]

Jon Bon Jovi said that Making Movies (1980) were one of his favorite albums and he would have liked to write Romeo & Juliet. He's got good taste!

[fbiberkopf2]

I used to play this as loud as possible, thinking maybe somehow she would hear it echoing across the country and understand. But, of course, life is not a movie song; all I did was wreck my hearing.

[levyelegino1]

You can fall for chains of silver, you can fall for chains of gold, you can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold, you promised me everything, you promised me thick and thin,now you just say "Yeah Romeo,I used to have scene with him!"

[Laterracalda]

My Gosh, it has been almost 30 years since I first heard it and I still love it like the first time!

[kayla0420]

goddd i love this songgggggg :)

[gnarkillkicksass]

I once had to do a essay exam in high school on romeo and juliet, having watched the movie (modern version) once and listened to this hundreds of times prior I though I was in deep shit but I finished it off a bad essay with "As a great writer said, "The dice were loaded from the start..."." Fortunately my teacher was a massive fan and I got a heap of ticks for that (none for anything else) and a pass just for "Good in text referencing!". If I bump into that teacher I am buying him a beer!

[annettef7]

we know that none of them have felt this way...

[pela13mcartney]

I can't do the talk like they talking on TV

I can't do a love song like the way its meant to be

I can't do everything but i'd do anything for you

I can't do anything except be in love with you identified

[programfy]

Superb!!!



[steve2toes]

missin my babes :(

[karlitos993]

Otro de los mejorers y poco valorados temas de ésta magnifica banda. Es curioso lo poco que se parecen a nadie, y lo poco que nadie se parece a ellos.No tuvieron mucha suerte, pero dejaron grandísimas canciones.

[lezhill59]

top album this was, 31 yrs on its still has soming

[Spike294]

@lezhill59 The best songs in history tend to :)

[FrontForge]

Great Song.

[Xymphonie54]

I can't do everything, but I'll do anything for you.

I can't do anything, except be in love with you...

[lilasam44]

Love to the lovers of that song...20 years later...still chillin'...

[TheDeadNut]

sweet

[TonyBaggBa]

I was watching the film "Hot Fuzz" and I noticed that when the owner of Summerfield

(Mr.Skinner) drives past the first death of the couple who played as Romeo and Juilet he is playing this song in his car.

Also when he drives past the fire scene when the french midget guy's house blows up he is listening to "Fire" by the doors.

LOL

[p1nkfl0yd]

@TonyBaggBa Actually, it was The Crazy World of Arthur Brown that played "Fire", but nice catch. That movie was great.

[TonyBaggBa]

@p1nkfl0yd I meant to say "Light my fire" by The Doors.

Don't know what happened....

And,it IS great not "was" :))

[63sylvan]

Mr. Knopfler, Thank you for all the great, deep music through the years. Keep coming back. It works if you work it!

[19822andy]

@SmexiMadzel She was seeing one of my pals behind my back!! I deserved it. I really liked her but I was young and stupid.

[19822andy]

@SmexiMadzel Wasn't funny at the time. I was confused. Long story really. She was an ex who I proper messed about on. Always cheating and all that kind of crap. I met her about 6 months later to go and see a movie. We went back to hers with one of her friends who ended up puking up and passing out through all the drink and weed. My ex saw I had changed and I wasn't the same person I was before. I asked her where I could crash and she said in her room. Don't feel bad for her. She got me back

[19822andy]

@TheBenBeanie She could have waited until after I had finished!! She stopped screwing me, cried and then screwed me again and cried. Was it something I was doing wrong?

[ralinka12]

The instrumental is the best I've ever heard. Amazing song, makes me think about the past.

[MaxxieOfKilrogg]

2:22... Fucking eargasm

[friendstacy]

the most absolutely perfect song



[TheRediemer]

Making Movies is one of the best rock albums ever, and this song one of the best on it

[mylles23]

Chet Atkins wrote "Why Worry" ! Great song off of "Brothers in Arms"

But what I wanted to say is that I love this love song from Mark. It was wriitten for his girlfriend Holly Vincent at that time ! Just a beautiful love song!

[Marikit777]

@mylles23 ... Mark Knopfler wrote "Why Worry" originally for the Everly Brothers, then 2 years later Dire Straits recorded it. Mark and Chet also had a guitar duet of that song.

[gfffffzx]

I love all of dire straits ,omg childhood memorys come flooding back think im gona cry,love dire straits ,legends ,love your music ,thankyou ,your the best.xx.

[kirstystewart2010]

[thefockema]

@kirstystewart2010 i'm 15 to but I don't understand you, you say you like the dire straits but you like jusin bieber to?



[kirstystewart2010]

@thefockema yea i grew up with a dad who loves dire straights and rod stewart ect but i also grew up with a mam who loves pop music and dance music ..so i have a very mixed taste in music lol

[xGhitax]

Great song !!!

[beatlejohn1980]

Mark Knopfler is ...kind' of.. a.GOD.

[FascioKiller]

"You and me babe, how about it?"

Thank you very much, Mr. Knopfler, even if just to say Thank you is not enough.

[sirwinfredsmith]

how can people not like this?

[viper1970025]

@sirwinfredsmith THERE DEAF

[alanchowe]

one of the best recordings, listen how the band, drums in particular, echo the lyrics, and each part of the song become more complex.

[Littleflower176]

Amazing song !

[munchetosrocks]

[SiL588]

i love this song so much!!

[smardula]

Did somebody say "cartagokarjedon  - Yeah. :) Nearly as good as Springsteen. ;)" I hope you were joking. If you were serious and I'm assuming you're from the US of A, I'm gonna call the FBI and have you're computer confiscated. Have a double heart pass burger on me and keep youre comments to yourself.

[diamonteer]

I feel like destroying my eardrums on this song.

[twinoak170]

@diamonteer It would be worth it.

[pela13mcartney]

simply great the beatles, the roling stones and dire straits were best rock bands ever

[fald33]

@pela13mcartney Don't ya forget Pink Floyd! By the way, all the greatest rock bands were British!

Love the dobro guitar at the beginning of this song...

[TheDadsDaughter]

They should have used this in every romeo and juliet film such an amzing song and band :)

[1familydayout]

One of the greatest songs of the 20th Century.

[mightymum61]

We can all love a song, but, to be in love with a song, well this is my in love song. I am so glad to be able to be part of the rising of this life long band. Thank you Mark

[gfffffzx]

I would love to see these live they are fantastic love them,xx.

[IZKI73]

[Mlajen]

[looneYeah]

this is incredibly good

[FediFede97]

oh my Gosh, i'm loving this song. 

[lahomiesi]

This song made me seriously cry. It bringed me so much memories from my girfriend and my dad who used to listen this and play it with guitar when he was young, and he played this to me manymanymany times when i was about 6 years old..

[forzamicha46]

Mark !

[Lollsss93]

the dice was loaded from the start.. wow

[cclady222]

POS Dire Straits won't allow originals. Nobody knows who you are anymore except the ones who loved you in the beginning.

[bonday100d]

Killers did a REALLLLY good cover of this :] xx

[WindsDorLink]

I wish i was my daddy's dad =[

[DERRYIRELAND]

@WindsDorLink You wish were your grandfather??

[WindsDorLink]

@DERRYIRELAND lmao would be better lol 

[alexpini93]

8 fuckin motherfuckers O.o

[rmartin232]

@alexpini93 lol i normally hate comments telling us how many people have disliked a vid (what the hell is the point?) but yeah not really any other way to describe them lol

[valdaft]

memories.....

[shaq565]

Nice Song,...

[boolover83687]

I just love this song.

[azabhoy1888]

beautiful . absolutely beautiful no words can describe dire straits forever

[TheMaddiesaurus]

Juilet, when we made love you used to cry..

[DrFruedienslip]

@TheMaddiesaurus She thought that a man could make her whole' but can a woman make a man be anymore confident? Love is a disease of lust in a game in the balance of affection seeking the austerity of true intimacy'

[MrKellogucio]

mostri.

[carllundwall]

and all I do is miss you and the way we used to be

all I do is keep the beat the bad company

all I do is kiss you through the bars of Orion

julie I'd do the stars with you any time......

[Richierich346]

@carllundwall Bars of a rhyme you clown!

[carllundwall]

@Richierich346 Ummm.....Ok I screwed up,,,,That makes me a clown??? Well I for one think u are a DOUCHEBAG!!!!!! Have a nIce Day CHACHI!!!!

[PaintSniffer07]

Best damn band to ever come out of Newcastle.

[happygregory1989]

@PaintSniffer07 Well it's either them or Cheryl Cole. If she was a band?

[sirwinfredsmith]

@PaintSniffer07 the 2nd singer from acdc is from newcastle..... does that count???

[PaintSniffer07]

@sirwinfredsmith Ah yes, but I said band, not singer.

[lisagirlpooh70]

AWESOME SONG((:

[Russythehussy]

Arr the time's always, always right to hear the husky voice of Mark in this perfect song. The godamn place too, "how bout' it", sends me soaring !!!

[joliejuju502]

=D I just love it

[romeosluvr4ever]

My parents named me for this song. I can't help but connect to it when I hear it.

[WarhawkMLKA]

@romeosluvr4ever They named you "Romeo and Juliet"?

[romeosluvr4ever]

@WarhawkMLKA No they named me Juliet.

[WarhawkMLKA]

...I...I know...I get it...it was just a joke...You said they named you after this song and the song's title is "Romeo and Juliet." I can tell by your YouTube name and the feminine way you type that you are a female, hence your name is most likely going to be Juliet and I was right. Just joking around a bit...

[romeosluvr4ever]

@WarhawkMLKA Oh, I'm sorry. My mistake. I'm awful at getting jokes over the Internet. ;)

[paulisdeadiburiedhim]

@WarhawkMLKA i know what you're thinking. I like to smoke dope occasionally too

[naxthe789789]

It's just i'm a liar. :(

[daemonicus1977]

The Song.

[Lunnatica17]

I LOVE THIS SONG!! *-*

[Buzzlybonk]

Their last good record but still unknown and not at all so good as the 2 first

[SuperHammer64]

riuscirò mai a uscire da questa prigionia..

[JBsweetDC]

the killer's verision is much better.

[Kumagoro314]

@JBsweetDC

You best be joking

[JBsweetDC]

@Kumagoro314 No, this is good but they do the song much better.

[colfaxdave]

@JBsweetDC When I heard The Killers sing this Mark Knopfler song my respect for The Killers and Brandon Flowers increased tremendously. Their excellent cover of this song, written by Mark Knopfler for Dire Straits, obviously pays respect and homage to the genius of Knopfler's songwriting skills and guitar virtuosity. The Killers show great admiration and respect to Knopfler in their recording of this song. One may prefer The Killers' cover; The Killers obviously like the original

[70sdude117]

@JBsweetDC no way

[hummerrdm]

fodastico

[inhale7]

A great song by an incredible songwriter

[SoylentGreenISHUNGRY]

I had to write an essay on this song for a class...

[renatovisks]

Sensacional!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[FaithyTheWeird]

i love dire straits...whenever i mention mark knopfler at school they all say..mark who? serisouly uneducated in amazing music <3

[jtmt50]

@FaithyTheWeird Check out Mark Knopfler playing with Chet Atkins.... if you

haven't already. It is an incredible combination of two guitar virtuoso's who

obviously had some serious fun!!

[TERRIMOO07]

i absolutely fucking adore this song

[deansusky]

You r never born too late if u can catch the train on time

[lucia63100]

brividi a pelle.........

[AishaElena88]

ottimo file audio...it's perfect..a very good track

[clarepurvisX]

im a really big killers fan but iv got to admit.. this version is my favourite of this song, its outstanding!

[HaipaSan]

@clarepurvisX It's because Mark Knopfler is a living legend. :)

[clarepurvisX]

@HaipaSan agreeeed :)

[bueskens04]

30 Jears of great music

[0711HSV]

The Killers should write their own songs! This is property of the Dire Straits, the most better version

[nunobranco22]

the most beautiful song ever written.

[Stube437]

@nunobranco22 ever plagiarised more like.

[95georgia]

The Killers Sing This Better, In My Opinion. So No One Bit My Head Off. :P

[nunobranco22]

@95georgia oh please..

[95georgia]

@nunobranco22 Just My Opinion :)

[Cynhafal1]

timeless words :)

"you and me babe.......how about it?"

very happy memories of the 80's :)

[papai03]

go 2 hell

[cianorockinit]

can you have a more romantic song love it!!!!

[ilykillers]

Even though the killers did a cover on this song.... i like the killers way better .... But i love them both hard pick1 :)

[lonz46]

hey ya...my boyfriend's back classic song by a classic artist

[billytemple51]

this is my amazing post Falklands record.

[brigismylife]

wow i love this :) i like the killers version better but this has more emotion

[Sauber9]

Brothers in Arms is my favorite song from Dires Straits. A really touching and reflexive song. But I also like very much The Man's too Strong, Ride Across the River (all the 1980s central europe guerrilla based songs), Down to the Waterline, Tunnel of Love and this from this video. Really good band, despite not being alive during the 1980s I love this band. It's quite sad that it's ended up :(

[mikatile]

listen to the single finger click, after he sings ".....bad company...." genius!!!!

[steeshlad]

seeing mark knopfler in newcastle, on may 22nd.

cant wait to see this song live. easily the best love song ever written.

[shadowdemonz83]
